Ralph Fiennes stars in David Hare’s blazing account of the life of a man whose iron will exposed the weakness of democracy in the face of charismatic conviction.

For forty uninterrupted years, Robert Moses was the most powerful man in New York. Though never elected to office, he manipulated those who were through a mix of guile, charm and intimidation.

Motivated at first by a determination to improve the lives of New York City’s workers, he created new parks, new bridges and 627 miles of expressway to connect the people to the great outdoors. But in the 1950s, groups of citizens at grass roots began to organize against his schemes and against the motor car, campaigning for a very different idea of what a city was and for what it should be.

Covid-19 seems to be a sort of dirty bomb, thrown into the body to cause havoc.

On the same day that the UK government finally made the first of two decisive interventions that led to a conspicuously late lockdown, David Hare contracted Covid-19. Nobody seemed to know much about it then, and many doctors are not altogether sure they know much more today. Suffering a pageant of apparently random symptoms, Hare recalls the delirium of his illness, which mixed with fear, dream, honest medicine and dishonest politics to create a monologue of furious urgency and power.

Pauline Gibson is a junior doctor, who becomes the face of a campaign to save her local hospital. She’s thrust from angel of the NHS, to becoming an independent MP.

In the Houses of Parliament, she crosses paths with her university boyfriend, Jack Gould, a stalwart Labour loyalist, climbing the ranks of the party.

As media and public pressure mounts on Pauline to run for leadership of the Labour party, she faces an agonising decision.

David Hare’s explosive new play, set in a very different 2018, portrays personal choices and their public consequences, through a twenty year intimate friendship.

Nobody can doubt John Christie’s passion or his formidable will: he wooed his opera singer wife with a determination befitting a man who won the Military Cross. Now, in 1934, this Etonian science teacher’s admiration for the works of Wagner leads him to embark on an ambitious project: the construction of an Opera House on his estate in Sussex.

But such is the scale of the enterprise that passion alone may not be enough. It’s only when a famous violinist is accidentally fogged in overnight in Eastbourne that Christie first hears word of a group of refugees for whom life in Germany is becoming impossible. Perhaps they can deliver Christie’s vision of the sublime – assuming of course they’re willing to cast his wife in the lead…

Une soirée, une bande d’amis réunis histoire de bavarder, de cancaner, de tromper l’ennui, de manger, de danser, de boire aussi bien sûr. La musique s’enraye. Le drame survient mais la fête continue. Une adaptation mouvementée aux accents balkaniques.

Oscar Wilde’s dangerous philosophy leads him on a path to destruction. The Judas Kiss describes two pivotal moments on that path: the day Wilde decides to stay in England and face imprisonment, and the night, after his release two years later, when the lover for whom he risked everything betrays him.

With a quiet but burning sense of outrage, David Hare presents the consequences of taking an uncompromisingly moral position in a world defined by fear, expedience and conformity.

南亚大国印度正掀起一股轰轰烈烈的全球化浪潮。然而在该国最大城市孟买却呈现出了另外一番光景：客流如潮涌、一派繁忙景象的飞机场和周围鳞次栉比的高级饭店的远处掩藏着一个不起眼的贫民区¬¬¬——那儿的人们也同上流社会的精英一样对自己的人生有着诸多设想与规划：泽赫伦妮沙和她相依为命的儿子阿巴杜想要通过回收垃圾赚钱致富乔迁新居；年近五十、身材矮小的苏尼尔想填饱自己的肚子，可以长得能和小偷卡鲁一样人高马大；心比天高的阿莎为盗取当局的反贫困基金颇费思量，而她的女儿文珠则日日苦读，矢志做一只早日飞出鸡窝的金凤凰。但对于生活在底层的老百姓来说，这些脆弱的理想不过是梦幻泡影——全球范围内的经济衰退威胁到了垃圾贸易，另一方面，某个贫民窟居民打的一场官司将会毁掉左邻右舍们的翻身希望。 曾获普利策奖的美国女记者凯瑟琳•布深入孟买的阿纳瓦迪贫民区，花了三载光阴忠实记录下贫民们的日常生活，著成《美丽的永恒背后》一书，英国著名剧作家戴维•黑尔则进一步将之炮制成颇具史诗规模且充满着搔嚷与喧嚣的舞台戏剧作品。且看孟买国际机场书有“美丽永恒”四个大字的广告牌后正上演着一幕幕怎样的悲欢离合、人情冷暖。

Through both comedy and tragedy, "Seagull" explores lives that are precariously balanced between love and indifference, success and failure, hope and despair. The first of what are considered to be Chekhov's four great plays, it sets the scene for the playwright's unmistakable mix of melancholia and laughter combined with a unique understanding of the daily torment of an unfulfilled.

East London school teacher Kyra Hollis is visited on the same night by son Edward and father Tom Sargeant. Kyra had been living with the Sargeant family years earlier, but left after her affair with Tom was discovered by Tom's wife, who has since died. Edward now accuses Kyra of having left him as well, as he saw her as a big sister; and he demands to know why she left his life.
Shortly thereafter, Tom, a wealthy restaurateur, with real life references to Terence Conran, appears unheralded and for no apparent reason. Kyra's less than glamorous lifestyle leads him to poke fun at her to the point of insult, accusing her of self-punishment. After Kyra cooks a spaghetti dinner (which the actress actually cooks on stage), the talk turns to their relationship, and it becomes clear that their chances to be rekindled rest on whether one of them can change their preconceived notions of the other.
